7. Security
The personal data that we collect from you may be transferred and stored at a destination outside the European Economic Area (‘EEA’) such as by our local agents who process your payment details in connection with contracts for our business clients, and collaborators who provide IT support services.

If we transfer your personal data out of the EEA, we do our best to ensure a similar degree of protection of data as within the EEA, by making sure that safeguards are implemented:

  • We only transfer personal data to countries that have been deemed by the European Commission to provide an adequate level of protection for personal data;
  • Where we use certain service providers or exchange data with collaborators, we may use specific codes of conduct or certification mechanisms approved by the European Commission ensuring a satisfactory level of protection of personal data;
  • If using providers or exchanging data with collaborators based in the United States, we may transfer data to them if they are part of the EU-US Privacy Shield, which requires them to provide similar protection to that afforded to personal data shared between EU countries.

We may request your consent to the specific transfer. You will have the right to withdraw this consent at any time.

Where you have chosen or we have given you a password or log-in that enables you to access certain restricted parts of our website, you are responsible for doing everything you reasonably can to keep these details secret.

We will never share your password or log-in details with anyone. While the transmission of information over the internet or public communications networks can never be guaranteed to be completely secure, we take appropriate technical and organisational security measures to protect the personal data that you submit to us against unauthorised/unlawful access or loss, destruction or damage.

We have put in place procedures to deal with any suspected personal data breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a breach where we are legally required to do so.

8. Children/Young People: Our Service does not currently address anyone under the age of 18. This means we do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from anyone under 18. Please contact us if you are a parent or guardian and you are aware that your child has provided us with personal data without your consent. If we become aware that we have collected personal data from a minor without parental consent, we take steps to remove that information from our servers.

9. Data Retention
We will only keep personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.

When determining the retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means. We always ensure we adhere to applicable legal requirements.

For tax purposes we are required by law to keep basic information about our customers, employees or clients for six years after they cease being customer, employee or client. This data includes Contact, Identity, Financial and Transaction Data.

In some circumstances you can ask us to delete your data: see below for further information.

In some circumstances we may anonymise data – so that it can no longer be associated with individuals – for research or statistical purposes, in which case we may use this information indefinitely without further notice.

10. Your Data Protection Rights
In certain circumstances, you have the following data protection rights:

  • The right to access. This enables you to check, update or delete information about you.
  • The right of rectification. You have the right to have your information rectified if that information is inaccurate or incomplete.
  • The right to object. You have the right to object to processing of your personal data.
  • The right of restriction. You have the right to request that we restrict the processing of your personal data.
  • The right to data portability. You have the right to be provided with a copy of information held about you in a machine-readable and commonly used format.
  • The right to withdraw consent. You have the right to withdraw your consent to us processing your private data at any time.
  • The right to be forgotten. You have the right to request erasure of your personal data.

If you wish to exercise any of these rights, please contact us (see below).

Find more information about your rights here: https://ec.europa.eu/info/law/law-topic/data-protection/reform/rights-citizens_en

We may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive or excessive. Alternatively, we may refuse to comply with your request in these circumstances.

For security, we may need to confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your personal data, or exercise any of your other rights. We may also contact you to ask you for further information in relation to your request.
